Wait for the Lord; be strong, and let your heart take courage; Yes, wait for the Lord. (Psalm 27:14 NASB)
Waiting is not one of my favorite things to do. At times, I get impatient. I see something that I could do, to help someone out of their dilemma; that would fix the problem only to learn, they needed to change and work it out with God themselves.
So, by me interfering keeps them from learning and growing. I need to wait on the Lord. He knows exactly how to lead and guide each person. I need to trust His way and His plan.
I want to see change right now, but only God knows what it will take to bring lasting change. He knows what I do not and so when helping others, I need to wait upon the Lord and take courage in His perfect timing.
